The ZBook Fury G1i 16 should eventually be available with up to the Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus, another 24-core processor with 8 P-cores and 16 E-cores. According to our benchmarks, the Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus should give the ZBook Fury G1i 16 around 10% higher CPU performance compared to the older Core Ultra 9 285HX.

For the time being, we cannot find any SKUs with the Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus, though. Instead, HP is limiting its updated ZBook Fury G1i 16 to the lesser Core Ultra 7 270HX Plus. As a result, the new ZBook Fury G1i 16 is actually less powerful than older Core Ultra 9 275HX and Core Ultra 9 285HX-powered options.

New ZBook Fury G1i 16 pricing starts at $7,374 with 32 GB of RAM, 1 TB of storage and an Nvidia RTX Pro 1000 Blackwell laptop GPU (8 GB). Alternatively, the 16-inch workstation can be configured with the RTX Pro 2000 (8 GB) and RTX Pro 3000 (12 GB) for $7,679 and $8,634, respectively. Please see HP's website for more details.
